Eva Schloss on Late Night Talk Show 'Jinek'

On the 14th of June 2017, Eva was invited as a guest on one of the most popular Dutch talk shows 'Jinek'. She spoke about her life story and gave two (right wing) politicians her opinion about the(ir) treatment of refugees in Europe.

The main points from a couple of more 'negative' comments could be boiled down to one of the following: People stating that the Jews are now doing the same thing to Muslims/others in Israel, or thatMuslims are antisemitic (so why would Eva want them in Europe) Both interesting points that we will discuss with Eva and in our film!

Talk: Documenting the Holocaust in a Transitional Context

On February 28th, Martha gave a talk for students of the University of South Carolina. During her talk, "Documenting the Holocaust in a Transitional Context: From Living Memory to History - Against the Backdrop of an Erosion of the Post-War World Order", Martha discussed the research conducted by actors into their characters, and the research conducted as a film-maker to design her film. In doing so, she passed between the contrasting approaches to representation characteristic of theater and of documentary filmmaking, and discussed the shifts between actor and director, research and imagination, and history and memory.
